Guys, i need some help. I need to connect my Database in MySQL and see the logs. I've done some research and i couldn't find a way to do this. At least, not with splunk light.

you can installed DB Connect on your Splunk and configure it on your MySQL Database
see manuel in this link:
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/1.0.11/DeployDBX/Installtheconnector

@fdi01, you are incorrect. you cannot use packaged apps with Splunk Light.

I can't find APP -> Manage APPs on my splunk installation. Is it because i can't do that on Splunk Light and i need to upgrade?

first download it on this link : http://answers.splunk.com/apps/Splunk+DB+Connect

ex: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/958/ for db connect1
before go to APP -> Manage APPs to install.
